When We Took a Trip Horn Haiku and Others

When We Took a Trip
Horn Haiku

when we took a trip
we were given a great tip
should go on a ship

she gave me some slack
instead we stayed in a shack
with black smokestack in back

when we went to game
bad players had been the blame
would be such a shame

ate big piece of pie
keep off table I did try
got some in my eye

with them made amends
brought back family and friends
their suffering ends
 
when the news was seen
had created such a scene
people there were mean

while under blue sky
avoid Trump again did try
when he caught my eye

when grabbed by the throat
she had wanted us to vote
in boat sail to Shallotte

when we would scurry
famous person did bury
we had to hurry

when this was the last
poem that I wrote in the past
often would procaste

what in past had found
no longer want Trump around
hard to bare his sound
